Hello! Im new but an old schol nerd. Im trying to overclock my Toshiba Satellite P755 laptop with I7-2630QM. It use to be so easy back in the day with BIOS settings but now none of the ususal settings are available. I downloaded Set FSB but now Im trying to find the Clock Generator for my motherbord but having a lot of trouble. I downloded Si-Sandra but it does not hve the clock generator listed nor PLL. Can any Jedi please advice me on this issue. I really dont want to open up my computer:bang head.:bang head
 
You really should not be overclocking on a retail laptop. These are build for portability and silence. Neither of these two factors will help you overclock. Generally, the heatsinks/fans in a laptop are just barely good enough to run the hardware at stock speeds, and in some cases, not even that.

The Toshiba I owned would overheat and shut down if I ran the right type of stress test on the processor. The video card committed suicide 5+ times and had to be replaced. This is all on stock settings or less.

I apologize that I'm not offering the assistance you specifically asked for, but I believe this is dangerous enough that you could harm the laptop. Since overclocking voids your warranty, if you were able to do it, you wouldn't be able to get a replacement. Leave overclocking to the components that are made for it.
 
Thanks. I just feel I got messed over because it is slow even if it is a quad. I spent too much ion a 2.0quad when I could hae bought a 2.5duo. [LSTREAM][/LSTREAM] Still would like to overclock it 2.3
